Marmoush reaction

We showed a very good mentality and we were very together as a team. From the first minute we were very focused on the job and I think we showed our mentality and passion in this game. We’re very happy to reach the final.

It’s one of the biggest clubs in the world and we’re here to win trophies. We give our best every day to reach these finals and win silverware. Hopefully we can do it for all the new players and also the players already here. They showed us that every medal and every silverware is important.

90'+1'

Rodri yellow card

Still time for a Rodri yellow card for the gentlest of tugs on Elanga.

Cherki magic

Oh that was delightful as the Frenchman dribbled past three Newcastle players before a simple pass. I just love watch him. Meanwhile, we've got two minutes of added on time.

Can we say the 'W' word yet?

"Wembley again, Wembley again, ole, ole, ole" chant the City fans. The famous arch is in sight. 

87'

Erling denied

Haaland denied by Ramsdale again. Good low shot, good low save. 

86'

Rayans' express

Buccaneering run from Ait-Nouri as he drifts between four challenges before being stopped by Murphy. Cherki whips over the free-kick but it's just beyond Haaland.

Last change

Nico gets warm applause as he's replaced by Rico Lewis.
